| Saint Mary Matfelon Church which was destroyed during The Blitz in 1940. The ruins were finally demolished in 1952. The site of the church became "St Mary's Park" until it was renamed "Altab Ali Park" in 1998. The outline of the church is all that remains of it. |

This is actually the back of St George's Residences, as it then was, formerly Sir (sic) George's Residence for Respectable Girls. I've marked Tewkesbury Buildings which were just below here (on the photo), a bit to the west. Aileen Reid, Survey of London |
